May 2018 Cookbook Promotion Roundup

It's the first of the month and that means giveaway roundup
time. As a reminder, we have tagged each promotion with the
specific region to make them easily searchable. Once you have found
your region's tag - bookmark that search and you will never have to
scroll through the long giveaway list again. To further help, I
have set out the tags below with links to the proper searches.
Click on your country (or, of course, worldwide) and you will have
a listing of giveaways available to you. (Remember to save that
search to your favorites).

If you are having any difficulties with entering our
giveaways, our how-to post should be able to steer
you in the right direction. I am working hard on providing more
worldwide possibilities but again this lies in the publishers'
hands.

My 2018 Preview post contains a
breakdown by month of cookbook titles and is updated
frequently. April's monthly round-up was recently published
and shares many links and general information as well including
more information about and (certain of our promotions
below have this added feature).
